Telemedicine at Root & Branch
In light of the ongoing Covid-19 Pandemic, Root & Branch has set up remote consultation capacity through our HIPAA-compliant, electronic health record system called Unified Practice. UP uses an app called Lifesize that allows patients to connect with their practitioner for a video consultation. This service requires only a connection to the internet with no special downloads or set-up on a home computer and can even be used on mobile devices with the Lifesize app.
In order to make sure your telemedicine appointment is available and to make sure you understand the process of seeing a practitioner digitally, NEW PATIENTS should call the clinic to schedule their appointment at 971-288-5939, Monday-Friday from 9am to 4pm. Returning patients may schedule online here
Special Consultation fees have been established during this difficult time to try and ease the burden of getting the advice and diagnoses you need.
Telemedicine Consultations for new patients will be set at $75 and follow-up consultations for returning or existing patients will be set at $55.
All payments will be processed in the virtual treatment room using your credit card and a secure transaction server.
**Telemedicine with Dr. Livingston is coordinated directly with him at drlivingston@gmail.com. His schedule and fees are independently managed.
